Rina Sawayama

Once upon a time
There was a girl, pleasing the world
Dying to be liked, looking for love
Wanting to trust

Stickers and scented gel pens
Give possessions
Get friends
Breaking off pieces, things started to change
I’ve been tryna find her since, she gave a little too much away

I don’t wanna do this without you
I don’t wanna do this if you’re just a ghost in the night
I tried everything to fill up the void that you left me with
My phantom

Phantom

If I could talk to you, I’d tell you not to rush
You’re good enough
You don’t have to lose, what makes you you
Still got some growing to do

When did we get so estranged
Haunted by the way I’ve changed
Claiming back the pieces of me that I’ve lost
Reaching in and hoping you’re still, waiting by the windowsill
I’d bring you back to us

I don’t wanna do this without you
I don’t wanna do this if you’re just a ghost in the night
I tried everything to fill up the void that you left me with
My phantom

I was wrong to assume, I would ever outgrow you
I need you now, I need you close
How do you hold a ghost
Inner child, come back to me, I wanna tell you that I’m sorry
I’m sorry

I don’t wanna do this without you
I don’t wanna do this if you’re just a ghost in the night
I tried everything to fill up the void that you left me with
My phantom

Don’t wanna do this without you
Don’t wanna do this if you’re locked away in my mind
I tried everything to fill up the void that you left me with
My phantom

Phantom, phantom
Phantom, phantom

Once upon a time
There was a girl
Dying to be liked
Looking for love

I don’t wanna do this without you
